Lizzy and Lissa break down the hidden costs – financial and otherwise – of prenups. While some people see prenups as a sign of distrust or associate them with divorce and greed, others view them as a practical necessity before getting married. In this episode, Lizzy and Lissa talk with Raymond Hekmat, a California-based family attorney. Together, they unpack common myths and misconceptions about prenups and explore whether they’re worth having.
